Ver 11.18 not accepting set field lengths
« on: July 26, 2019, 05:53:51 AM »
Hi Bruce,

In 11.16 I have set the field lengths and it worked perfect.
The field was 60 characters and the ? for the Lookup button was right at the end.
It also displayed the full Description.

Now with 11.18 it is all messed up.
Full description is not displayed and the Lookup button is very wide.
Now changes to the field settings, just recompiled with 11.18.

Hi Johan,
I have experienced the same thing. Here is what I found.
On the Settings Tab if you do not add Width(chars) then the button displays correctly.
If you set it to any character length then the button will size to the string's field size.

Bruce see attached web31.zip from Invoices under the Products menu item.

Hi Ashley,

Thanks for jumping in and giving Bruce the example.
I was out of the office, just got back.

Thanks for fixing it Bruce.
